| This invaluable program links Estimation Logistics Mechanical & Plumbing and HVAC Estimating Software with East Coast (Sheet Metal 3D CAD) and with AEC Design Group (CADPIPE Commercial and CADPIPE HVAC) respectively. Through partnerships with EastCoast and AEC Design Group, we are able to provide you with cutting-edge technology that will help you improve your business by automating and expediting every step of takeoff.
As your CAD software produces complete Bill of Materials Reports of items captured from the drawing, the CAD Link program allows this detailed information from the Bill of Materials Reports to be imported directly into Estimation Logistics Mechanical & Plumbing and HVAC Estimating software. This provides you with a complete estimate without having to manually input the data. For Mechanical & Plumbing, this report includes every pipe, valve, and fitting as well as material type, schedule, connection type, and specifications for each item. For HVAC, this report includes every straight, fitting, and all accessory items as well as default length, cut length, and fitting reports.
The CAD Link is able to read the items into the respective CAD Mechanical & Plumbing and HVAC software and map it to specific items in Estimation Logistics database, thereby importing all the information directly into takeoff. This valuable, time-saving function reduces the chance of error from re-entering data.
Benefits of Using CAD Link:
Provides a direct link between your CAD Mechanical & Plumbing and HVAC Bill of Materials and Estimation Logistics estimating software
Imports directly into takeoff
Provides accurate estimates without manual takeoffs
